This paper proposes and analyzes a scalable and an efficient cluster based group key management protocol by introducing identity based infrastructure for secure communication in mobile wireless sensor networks.To ensure scalability and dynamic re-configurability, the system employs a cluster based approach by which group members are separated into clusters and the leaders of clusters securely communicate with each other to agree on a group key in response to changes in membership and member movements.Through analysis we have demonstrated that our protocol has a high probability of being resilient for secure communication among mobile nodes.Finally, it is established that the proposed scheme is efficient for secure positioning in wireless sensor networks.
